8th Anniversary Sale!

The first in the series, featuring the unsung heroes of the horse world - the lesson horse - was published in September 2004 after we had closed our Unicorn Stables (1975-2000).

From little Petey, my son's first pony, to big Tetris, an ex-dressage
horse, these stories have been enjoyed by horse lovers of all ages. I've
read some to kids as young as five because several anecdotes describe
the special bonds between children and a horses. Older riders enjoy the
trip down memory lane.

My Morgan Horse, Windfield Farewell, is featured on the cover and first
chapter. He calms a nervous Girl Scout as she attempts to overcome her
fear in order to earn her Horsemanship badge.

Dennis, a grade gelding who loves to halt, rewards
an autistic 6 year old with a prompt response when asked to whoa. The
boy, who had never smiled in his life, grins like a crescent moon
causing the walkers to be overjoyed to tears.

And a double amputee Viet Nam veteran proves to himself that he is still a cowboy when on Knipper.

These are just a few of the horses featured. When marketing my book,
other horse lovers wanted to tell me about their beloved horse. And so a
series was born. The 5th will feature breeds from around the world and
be released at the end of this year.
